Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was ticketed for speeding near the team's Winter Park facility on Monday, according to the Eden Prairie police department.

Peterson was driving 53 mph in a 35-mph zone, according to the police department's public information officer, Katie Beal, who said Peterson was cited at the intersection of Viking Drive and Golden Triangle Drive. Peterson has 21 days to respond by pleading guilty and paying a fine or by contesting the ticket and setting up a court date, Beal said.

In November 2009, police ticketed Peterson after they clocked him doing 109 mph in a 55-mph zone at Minnesota 62 and Gleason Road in Edina. Peterson was running late for check-in at the Vikings' hotel in downtown Minneapolis the night before the team's game against the Chicago Bears.

In June 2010, Peterson pleaded guilty to driving 99 mph, which allowed him to keep his driving privileges. In Minnesota, a license can be revoked if a driver is going faster than 100 mph.

In December 2009, Peterson said of fallout from the incident, which included a television interview from his front lawn: "It wasn't rough at all. It is what it is.

"It's ridiculous. I'm sure people get speeding tickets all the time. But when you're in the spotlight, that's how it is."
